Curriculum
Comparison chart for 2008 - 2009 MAP test scores.
Footprints Academy has a superior curriculum. Our curriculum goes beyond vague and generalized guidelines outlining what students are to know by providing very specific mastery objectives. The teachers collaborate with one another to provide continuity from one grade to the next, and to ensure that children are constantly building skills.
-
new information available in the field of education;
-
the specific skills and talents of the children in each class;
-
the strengths and desires of each individual teacher,
and the parents' goals which are incorporated into the process.
Grade Level Objectives
We re-evaluate our learning objectives and make adjustments based on
| Kindergarten | First | Second | Third |
| Fourth | Fifth | Sixth |
We have researched the academic goals that are outlined by the public
schools, and set our minimum goals above those of the public schools.
The minimum goals that we set would be the absolute essentials,
outlining what we expect each child to master as a base in each grade.
As far as what they learn on top of these minimum goals, the sky is
the limit.
In addition to the traditional subjects including reading, math,
science, social studies, physical education, technology, art, and
music, our students are also provided instruction in Spanish and
American Sign Language.
